Having looked at the image, the visitors ARE his parents and he was their only child. They were married on 9th May 1879 and Hubert was their only child.

Hubert married Gertude on 13th June 1902 but I have not found the marriage as yet.

Thinking about it, if Hubert lied about already being married when he 'married' for the second time, he could well have also lied about his age or where he came from ?

Does she have the 1919 marriage cert, if so this could be very useful as we could compare his signature on that to the one on this 1911 census form !!!! ;-)

It would also be useful for us to have all the other details from that marriage cert.

I am very curious about this one !

I know his year of birth is wrong and he was in fact born in Jersey!

BUT he is in Llanelli and his wife was born in Manchester.

She also died in the Manchester area so she may have returned there after he left her?

The 'visitors' on there 'may' be his parents?

Men born abt. 1889 always make me think about WW1 especially when they have had broken marriages. A lot of men who married prior to the war never went home after it was finished and made another life elsewhere (due to trauma etc.)
So I was wondering about this one:-

British Army WWI Pension Records 1914-1920 about Hugh Leonard

Estimated birth year: abt 1887
Age at enlistment: 23

Regimental Number: 19721
Regiment Name: South Wales Borderers
Number of Images: 6
Discharged on:- 17th July 1915 (unfit for service)


.............born abt. correct time in Lancashire but with connection to Wales?

EDIT:- Noted as being single, so maybe not???

Does your friend have the death cert to see who registered the death?

If, as you believe, he died in the area where his 'first' wife was living, maybe they got together again after he left Mary Ann and the children, in which case, she may be mentioned on that cert?

Death confirms birth to be abt.1889

Deaths Mar 1934 (>99%)
Leonard Hubert 45 Fylde 8e 767

Sorry a bit confused here.

You now say that he was born c.1888 so why were we looking for a marriage between 1896-1910? He would only have been 8yrs old in 1896 so that wouldn't have been possible.

What were the details on the marriage certificate to Mary Ann Lennon?
What did he give as his age and his occupation?

Do you or your friend have the 1919 marriage certificate? If so what occupation is given for Hubert?

This is the only Hubert/Bert Leonard born 1888 +/- 5 years that comes up in the 1911 census on Findmypast:-

Hi and thanks for all your imput the trouble is I don't have enough to go on to tell you more.
He married in Llanelli Wales in 1919 a Mary Ann Lennon they had two children Hubert & Anne in Liverpool, He had been married before and was a bigamist, I don't know the name of his first wife.

He left his second wife and kids and died in Fleetwood Lancashire 1934 so he was born c 1888, I cannot see a birth for a Hubert Leonard c1888 so was thinking it may have been a middle name.
I am helping a friend and Hubert was her Grandfather but that's about all she knows, she says she thinks his first wife may have lived in Fleetwood and he told her Gran he was from Swansea.

That's about all I know.

Thanks Colette

Hope Colette does come back to this with more info as would be interested to help further.

I actually have a huge family of Leonards myself so curious as to how it goes ....

Hi can anyone find a Hugh Leonard born Liverpool 1880 on the USA Census.. the only clue we have is Buffalo but which one.. we believe he was sent to USA as an Orphan, between 1881-1891..

Or a passenger record for him i only have ancestry UK,, so not much good...

Cheers Colette

Don't know how this relates to 'Hubert' but am going to stop on this until we have more info from Colette.
